DESCRIPTION
* CVE-2017-7495: Information leak when ext4 ordered data mode is used.
A logic error when flushing data to be written to an ext4 filesystem
could lead to information leak. A local attacker could use this flaw to
read any other files and escalate privileges.
Orabug: 30361860
* Kernel crash in Reliable Datagram Socket RDMA pool management.
A logic error when tracking items in an RDMA pool can result in a reference
count exceeding its maximum limit, leading to a kernel crash.
Orabug: 30397940
* CVE-2017-14991: Information leak in SCSI Generic Support driver.
Failing to initialize buffer when performing ioctl call for /dev/sg0
results in stale kernel data leaked into userspace. This allows local
users to obtain sensitive information about kernel heap memory.
